Default Rear brake help.





Can someone point me in the right direction for a replacement rear brake line. One end is a banjo the other is I guess a male or female? Idk. It's a 2005 something with a gy6 engine. Went to replace the master cylinder and lever and bleed them the other day and the caliper was locked up. So I have a new one on the way but the brake line is splitting. Was gonna replace it but I haven't seen one like this. Plus if anyone could also point me to replacement front brakes also. It is a wired brake. One lever goes to both front brakes, no master cylinder on it.

Doubtful if you will find the correct hose off the shelf, but there are lots of brake specialists who make hoses for hot rods, classic cars and race cars. They could make a new one using the old as a pattern. Won't be cheap though.

What is wrong with the front brakes? They often seize on the pivot/cam on the end of that lever pictured, freed off and lightly greased, with adjusters set so both sides "bite" with the same handlebar lever movement, they should be as good as new.

That looks like a 2 piece brake hose. Never saw that before, but couldn't you just replace the entire hose with a longer one. I'm assuming the brake lever or master cylinder has a banjo connection also. They make lots of different length hoses available on Amazon or eBay for short money. The front brake lever is very common. Usually has the throttle attached also.
